HAHA Nessa~~I needed a good laugh tonight!! They prob. can't run faster than you will be able to next year at this time!! You know who it was tht stole it..it was the skinnest guy in the office who wants to pump up his muscles and thinks everyone is bringing all that junk just for him to gain weight and figured the boost was just part of it!! When you find out who stole your Boost what are you going to do to them??

hey terri, at least you have a reason to fall..I have just fallen several times because my foot was not lifted up enough to get out of the way and I trip myself....not a funny thing when you cant get up gracefully!! Way to go on the NSV!!!!

If you like historical fictions Jeffery Archer books are EXCELLENT!! The Prodigal Daughter, As the crow flies, Kane and Able, just to name a few. I have also gotten hooked on Janet Evanovich novels. and also the alphabet murders..if you gumshoe type books. All good reads Enjoy your certificate!!

where was the tissue alert with this one!! I was laughing so hard i started crying!!

hey Porc. I have resorted to counting my freckles. I ran out of arm hairs to count... nex up is making little animals out of the texture on my walls, see wht I can come up with.....who knows, maybe there is a pink elephant in there somewhere... So are we now bored band sisters? haha

lady,she is from Royse City which is a small town east of Rockwall. Almost a suburb of Dallas..

regina, Call Dr cribbons in Plano. See if they can get you scheduled before the end of the year. There is also a group at Lake Point, I don't know the Dr. names but you can call the hospital ref. line and they can give you the names.. If you alrady have the ins approval you should be able to change surgeons very easily Call your ins company and ask them how you get the surgeon and facility approval changed and they will be able to walk you through it. As far as the Bariatix clinic...Now that they have your name and address...you willbe getting stuff from them for years!!! Is it the one in Wylie?? I called them about 4 years ago and asked for some information aboutWLS and have never been into their office but am still getting mailers and have even gotten phone calls from them wanting to know if I had made a decision about the srugery yet....they need to find someone else to call!! Good luck and let us know what happens If you need Dr. Cribbons phone # PM me and I will get it to you ASAP

call your Dr and ask to be checked. If you are having that much trouble regaining your strength there may be something else going on... And don't wait, call TODAY!!

What a cool christmas present you guys are getting this year!!! So are you going to wrap a can of chicken broth to put under the tree for her to use as a symbol of the present?? HAHA (you just wont be able to unwrap that one in front of the family)

Stress test was not hard I had to walk on a tread mill and they just kept increasing the incline and speed. Mine wa done by a cardio.guy and they took some pics before and then as soon as i got off they did again to see how quickly my heart recovered. It was nat as hard as i thought it would be. Make sure she wears good comfortable walking shoes and comfortable clothes. and be prepared for her legs to be tired that night!! Good luck guys!! I wish I had a support like you when I was starting this whole thing!!

ok here is his number Gregory Chapman, MD 8160 Walnut hill Ln Dallas, TX 75231 In the Margot Perot Building 214-365-1150 Good luck and let us know if you were able to get in to see him before new years!!

Carrie, i have a wonderful obgyn at Presby Dallas I will get his phone number tomorrow and get it to you. It is Gregory Chapman. I LOVE him!! He did my hysteroctomy and was so sweet about the entire thing. Not a surg by choice but rather by necessity!! Any way I have SEVERAL friends who use him and we all adore him!! He has a wife and told me she makes sure he understands what it is like to go through female things...lol

I have a beautiful cocker spaniel, party mix, which means black and white. She is my constant companion since my husband moved out. she was "his" dog before that but now she will not let me out of her site for very long. And this past month when I have been so depressed she will not leave me alone for more than long enough for her to go outside and pee. She knows i am not emotionaly stable right now is there to beg for afection al day!! My kids are a better support than she is but she loves me unconditionally!!

yeah, your right ..Single and that hot, he would have to be gay!! just our luck!! haha

is your boss avaliabe?? I should be avaliable sometime next year and will need to have my first date with someone...

see, we Texans are friendly peopl, even when we are giving you a ticket and making you spend your vacatin money!!! Tooo Funny girl!! I love it. What Part of the Lone Star State were you in for the ticket??

well girls, where I live we have these terrible hail storms and one day I was outside during one and I'll be darned if I did get hail damage on my body!!! I never really thought about loosing weight as a way to repair that hail damage....is that what all those paintless dent repair places really are?? Just weight loss centers??

I'm guessing from where you live that the church women are LDS.... I'll let you in on a little secret...Most of us LDS women are depressed!!! We feel the same way you do. I don't fit into any social group because I'm different. Either I'm to fat, not pretty enough, my clothes are not fashionable, they will not understand me because Of my religious beliefs.....the list goes on and on... Each and everyone of us has the same mantra going on inside us, if only i did __________ my life would be the way I realy want it. Well what happens when we loose weight, fix our hair, put on our make up, get nicer clothes, clean the house...other poeples attitude toward us has not changed, it is like Jack said in his ppost, it is OUR attitude that has changed. I think when we get in agroup of other women we try to find a common thing to talk about. and weight is a common thing people ar e concerned about.. weather it is 5 pounds or 100 the concern is the same for each of us. The whole 'If Only" thing starts up in our mind and we think that we will be that perfect girl when we accomplish tha goal... If we will put Jacks non scientific research to use, go in with the attitude that we are important it will help I TRY, not always good at this mind you, but I try to 'fake' a good mood and eventually it is actually a good mood!! Forget about yourself, there are some very smart people who counceled others to go do something for someone else, forget yourself and you will find that you a re happier. My take on that is of you could onkly see how bad off others are you realize you are not so bad after all. Kinda like hang out weith the ugly girls to make yourself look better..lol I am rambling here, but my point, like most others, you are no different than the rest of us. Even the skinny girls are truly insecure about themselves and just as depressed about life as us big girls...take Jacks advice, put on a smile pretend to be happy, as you go see your Dr to get those anti depressants!! Let us know how you are dong, we are all in this together.

well at least you get to loose because of your period..I had a hysteroctomy a few years ago so I do not get that.... I have stalled out again with my weight loss. it seems that I will stall and then WHAM!! it starts up again!! I do know that I do not need a fill. I am very tight right now. only able to eat about 2 ounces at a time. so that is not the issue... Just our bodies adjusting.. I just wish it werent so frustrating!!

desiree...I feel your anguish!!! It took me 3 weeks to get under 200 once I got to 208!!! Now I want to get to 189 by christmas. I am fluctuationg between 194 and 192..it is driving me nutso!! ( short drive haha) Good Luck with your Christmas present to yourself!! I never thought 199 pounds would look and feel so good!!

OK So I've now lost enough weight that none of my clothes fit!! Wednesday night I went over to a friends house to take her some Jelly I made and she gave me 2 HUGE bags of clothes that do not fit her anylonger- she has lost about 25 pounds by dieting... Anyway..now I have a bunch of clothes that fit again!! I was SO EXCITED!! It was like Christmas came early for me!! Just had to share..

Good morning From Sachse!!! Who else is frozen from this record breaking cold?? And where are all of us Texans?? this thread seems a little dead. Come on guys, I live vicariously through all of you lol

Thanks Cindy, I'll save these size 18's for you. I am in sachse So I can easily get them to you when I no longer can wear them!! Hopefully that will only be a couple of months away!! Then I will have to go thrift store shopping...

Congratulations!!! What a great Christmas gift for yourself!!
